Cody watched Zoé, a little relieved that she hadn’t seemed to have any negative response to Sebastian. He looked back over to Aron, giving him a smile, and seeking to return to his side, watching as Zoé approached Gage, a little tense himself, but things seemed to go alright...mostly, and Cody looked to Aron, seeing that he was trembling. Cody covered the distance between them, and took Aron in his arms, hugging him close, and nuzzling him, wanting to protect him from everything, protect him from those that shouldn’t treat their kids like they had Aron and Gage. Adopted or not. He kissed Aron softly, not caring that there was a room full of people. He wanted to soothe, even as he wanted to...do something drastic. 

He hated seeing Aron scared, and he’d do anything to make sure Aron was never scared like he was now, again. Anything. [color=tan]”You don’t have to go back there.We will figure something out”[/color] He said, to Aron. [color=tan]”i mean it. You can stay at my place. If you want”[/color] 

He hugged Aron tightly, never wanting to let him go. He wanted to make Aron feel safe, warm and loved. Even as part of him wanted to go show their crazy adopted parents what it meant to mess with Aron was with...him. But he didn’t know if that was truly him or...what was happening and it unnerved him a bit, so instead he focused on Aron. And that was a heck of a lot easier than anything. 

[color=tan]”I just want you to be happy…”[/color] He said softly to Aron, knowing that no matter what, he wasn’t going to leave Aron alone tonight. He wanted to be with him.
